24、The Chinese kite is a symbol of the Chinese art. Flying a kite is a very popular activity in China. In spring, large numbers of people gather in the squares or parks and fly beautiful kites there.
A philosopher (哲学家) called Mozi was said to be the inventor of the Chinese kite. His kite had the bird’s name of “Yuan”, a kind of bird with a long tail. He made the kite out of wood. Later, his student Lu Ban improved it and made the kite out of bamboo.
With the development of paper-making, paper was introduced into the kite-making. The kite got the name “Zhi Yuan”, as “Zhi” in Chinese means paper. And during the Five Dynasties period, people tied the bamboo whistle (哨子) to the kite. When the kite was flying, the air could make the whistle sound like Guzheng playing. So the kite carried the name “Fengzheng”.
From then on, making and flying the kite became very popular in Weifang, Shandong Province. Every year in spring, when the weather became warm, almost every family went out to fly the kite and have a picnic on sunny and windy days. It was an exciting folk activity and a good time to show different beautiful kites. At the same time, they also enjoyed the warm weather and fresh air. The tradition has been well kept until today and has become the world-famous Weifang International Kite Festival, which is held from 20th to 25th in April every year.

27、What do you think of black cats? Are they unluckier than cats of other colors? Many people in Western countries think so. Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), did a study on cat colours and people’s understandings of cat personalities.
The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by color. Scientists did a survey on the Internet. There were 49 statements (描述) matching five cat colorings with 10 personalities. People think orange and bi-coloured (双色的) cats are friendly, tri-coloured (三色的) cats are not generous, and white cats are calm, lazy and shy. As for black cats, people think they don’t have special personalities.
But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets? People think black cats have less special personalities, which might be because of their bad reputation (口碑). They think black cats may bring bad luck, especially at Halloween. Movies and television shows also make people believe that.
Although people have these ideas, UC Berkeley scientists give another reason: people don’t think black cats are pretty enough. After all, nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats. “You can’t judge a cat by its colour, because it’s the personality of the cat, not the colour, that will let you know if the cat is right for you,” Cathy Marden, a scientist said.
